- HOPO interacts with Al 4 O 6 as a bi-dentate ligand: i.e., carbonyl oxygen (in HOPO) binds to aluminum (in Al 4 O 6 ) and the hydroxyl group (in HOPO) is hydrogen bonded with oxygen (in Al 4 O 6 ).
- a tri-dentate binding mode for BSP with Al 4 O 6 was identified: two sulfonyl groups (in BSP) bind to two aluminum atoms (in Al 4 O 6 ) in addition to the hydrogen bond between hydroxyl group (in BSP) and oxygen atom (in Al 4 O 6 ).
- BSP is not very electron donating (as shown by the low HOMO energy in Table 9), strong binding with Al 4 O 6 with three coordination sites is nevertheless observed.
- the BSP functional group was shown to bind to aluminum oxide through tri-dentate mode, resulting in very strong interaction (adhesion). Unlike other strong binding ligands such as HOPO, BSP is difficult to oxidize and is expected to have good stability. Structures with binding motifs similar to that of BSP can also lead to strong binding toward aluminum oxide.
- Similar methods may be used to identify other metal ligands appropriate for enhancing adhesion to a particular metal surface and that may be incorporated into the backbone of a prepolymer and/or provided as a terminal group of a prepolymer as described in the present disclosure.
